Well, I seriously feel like my body is just going to shits!! Excuse my french.. And yes, it’s partly my fault.. Ever since I got married I haven’t been taking care of ME! I used to eat so healthy, but my husband definitely rubbed off on me.. He has such a bad diet.. Any who, I just got back from getting some blood work and my b/p checked. My blood pressure is way too high.. I think it was 154/96 this morning.. My norm is 120/80… Yes, way too high!! Of course it didn’t help that I was in a lot of pain because I couldn’t eat or drink anything until they did my blood work this morning.. So I wasn’t able to take my medication for fibromyalgia.. But it still has been on high side lately.. So, they put me on a diuretic/Lasix.. I have to take it every day if my b/p is over 140/80.. I hate all this shit!! And I had my eyes checked yesterday.. I have a blood clot in my right eye. It’s fairly small but I still need to see a specialist for it. Not really sure how I got it but it might have something to do with my medication I’m taking or my blood clot incident when I had my hysterectomy.. I’m hoping this all nothing.. I definitely don’t want to have any thing happen to my eye..
This year has definitely sucked when it came to my health.. Did it scare me enough to change things? Of course it did.. I need to get back into my eating right and working out.. And hopefully that will help me get older a little bit easier…
Oh boy you have been going thru a lot! I hope the eye thing turns out to be a minor thing that can be dealt with easily. Hopefully your high bp has more to do with the pain level you were having at the time and then you can wean back off of it. Keep my fingers crossed for you! Yeah, aging sucks physically. I don’t want to be twenty again. . . Ever. But I wouldn’t mind feeling twenty physically again. I miss that rebound you have when you’re young! Hang in there my friend! Love and miss you much!
